My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

My name is Cookie. I am a 3 year old, 60 pound pointer/ American bulldog mix. I was surrendered by my previous owner to our local animal shelter in May 2023. My foster mom pulled me from the shelter on March 9, 2024. So, I was in the shelter 283 days.

I know how to sit and learned how to use the doggie door within hours of being in my new foster home. I know how to wait patiently for my food. Mom doesn’t like me to eat until she says it’s okay. Mom taught me how to shake, if you offer your hand. I can easily learn commands if motivated with tasty treats. I don’t mind other dogs playing with my toys. I am housebroken and will need a fenced yard or an e-fence to stay safe.

I am good on a leash, but I can become a little too interested in other dogs. I can be selective with my dog friends, but I like the two at my foster home. I have visited other dogs and we go on walks together. Proper introductions are very important for me to feel safe. Mom doesn’t let me around cats, as I love to chase them.

I love toys. I love to chew. I love to play and my mom says my play bow is precious. My favorite game is tug. I can be left in my kennel all day, but when Mom gets home I have a ton of energy. She takes me on a 30-45 minute walk and I feel better. If I don’t get a walk after being in my kennel all day, sometimes I find stuff to chew on. I like kids, but I may be a little too rambunctious and play too hard for tiny toddlers.

I love big fluffy beds and don’t mind cuddling on it with my foster sister. I take lots of naps between playtimes. I rarely bark and am typically a quiet girl.
